Folks, We've been using Samza in Production from beginning of this year. It's been quite stable for our needs, although, we don't use it heavily yet. One of the things we would like to know is, where is Samza Mesos integration in the roadmap? I know, SAMZA-375 <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SAMZA-375> is specifically towards that, but, is there something stopping the community from integration into mainline?
I ask this because, we run our Samza jobs on YARN right now and we use Mesos infra for other workloads. I really don't want to manage 2 infra components which are supposed to do exactly the same thing. We've built enough tooling around Mesos infra, so, wouldn't want to move away from it too. The options we're evaluating are: 1. Move to KStreams and get away from YARN 2. Explore Samza-Mesos integration so that, we can reduce "explicit" dependency on Kafka. Some clarity on this would really help us. Sriram -- It's just about how deep your longing is!
